In this video showcase we can have a look at the 1985 omnibot Overdrive. See him here in all modes. I’ll point out things you need to be aware of if after one for yourself. Show you how he looks and can be displayed with and without his accessories.
I can then show you different packaging variants of him too. Join this channel to get access to perks:

Now THIS is cool. Always wanted these guys back in the day.

[@ToysareRuss]

Have you got them now?

[@jermaineivey4699]

@@ToysareRuss Nope - I am scouting though

[@RetroActionUK]

My favourite Omnibot. Definitely has the best attack mode of all 3 and again it is very reminiscent of MASK. According to TFWiki the instructions explained why they didn’t come with Bios and Tech Specs as it claimed they were so new that they hadn’t had a chance to be tested before shipping off to Earth! Quite an interesting way to get around having no Bios and Tech Specs!

[@ToysareRuss]

I saw that. Obviously communication between the US and Japan wasn’t as easy as it is now

[@dukenukem9770]

This is so cool! I had a few male transformers as a kid. The only Omnibot I had was Camshaft. I still have him! I would love to see NewAge Omnibots! I would also like to see Hasbro revisit the Omnibots as long as they do them justice.

[@ToysareRuss]

They are in desperate need of some decent updates. From everybody

[@purpello4403]

I was always interested to see how the Omnibots worked, thanks for the great video!

[@ToysareRuss]

No problem! I’ll get around to doing the other 2 soon as well

What a awesome figure, looks great for a G1, I gotta say the curse of the UK is not as bad as the backwater of Australia, we're still luck to see half of what the rest of the world gets,but every now and again we get a few hard to get ones, sometimes we even get them before the rest of the world, I was lucky enough to get legacy motor master weeks before the reviews were on KZbin, but that is the exception not the rule, but I digress, great figure and great review, cheers

[@ToysareRuss]

It crazy that there’s still very different distributions around the world

[@DarrenLee73]

Sorry to hear about the curse of the UK.I still, to this day, don't know what happened to my Mail Away G1 Megatron.Any number of things could've happened and after that I told myself I was done with Mail Away Transformers offers.

[@ToysareRuss]

Curse of uk was terrible and for what I’ve still been told absolutely no reason either

[@jeremysnead9233]

He looks like a Gobot Puzzler figure.

[@ToysareRuss]

You’re right.

[@andrewgrant2990]

You may have had the Curse of G1, but you got the Revenge of G2 (or 1.5) with all of those really cool toys! Great review btw! Have an awesome day!

[@ToysareRuss]

Yeah we did good with the European exclusives but our G1 corse was awful. No constructicons, predacons, deluxe insecticons and autobots, no shockwave, blaster, perceptor, both sets of clones, trypticon, fortress maximus, counterpunch, omega supreme, skylynx, Bugly, finback, iguanus, splashdown, groundbreaker, sky high, no mail aways at all so no powerdashers or omnibots. That’s just the ones I can remember off the top of my head

[@andrewgrant2990]

@@ToysareRuss I had no idea the list of what you didn't get was so extensive.

[@ToysareRuss]

@@andrewgrant2990 yeah it was really bad. That’s just top of my head as I’m sure there were many more. Of course SWOOP we never got him either

[@PrivateAccountXSG]

Wish they would remake him

[@ToysareRuss]

Me too.

[@MartinCarterProduction]

great video

[@ToysareRuss]

Thanks!
